The Year of Mission- Embracing the Call
Following the Year of Eucharistic Revival, we are invited to deepen our faith and actively share the Good News with the world during The Year of Mission. As we reflect on the profound gift of the Eucharist, we are called to live out its message through bold acts of love, justice, and evangelization. Let us embrace this opportunity to become vibrant witnesses of Christ’s presence, bringing hope and healing to our communities and beyond. Let us set ablaze our world with Eucharistic love!
Below, please find resources to help strengthen your devotion to the Blessed Sacrament.
Jesus in the Eucharist is the answer to every restless longing of the human heart. If we truly believe this, then that living faith will compel us to share this joy with our brothers and sisters! That’s what the third year of the Revival—the Year of Mission—is all about.
This is an exciting new season of the Revival movement. The Holy Spirit has enkindled a missionary fire in the heart of our nation, and now he is sending out every member of the Church to spread the Good News—sharing the gift of our Eucharistic Lord with those on the margins. And YOU are invited to be a part of it!
We are all called to evangelize, and thanks to the gift of the Holy Spirit, we are well-equipped for this mission. It may not mean spreading the Gospel in a foreign land or going door-to-door with the Good News—and it may require overcoming some fears—but the Lord is asking each of us to step out of our comfort zone and evangelize one-on-one.
There is someone in your life right now whom Jesus longs to call to himself. He wants to spark a relationship with them and bless them with his sacraments. In this Year of Mission, Catholics across the U.S. are saying “yes” to a special form of heart-to-heart accompaniment called the Walk With One initiative. This is your opportunity to be God’s instrument in the life of another person. Imagine how our families, neighborhoods, and country will be transformed if every active Catholic answers this call!
